Foot Ball Squad.

The spring foot ball squad began practice yesterday under the coaching of Captain Trafford. The work was purposely light, and consisted of a short run from the gymnasium to the field. There the men, about forty in number, were lined up in two opposite rows and instructed in the elementary principles of blocking, breaking through and dropping on the ball. The squad then took a sharp roundabout run back to the gymnasium. This plan will be followed out for several days until the men are more accustomed to the work, then regular elevens will be formed and games played. Trafford will probably do all the coaching, and practice will be continued until one or two weeks after the Easter recess.
